Hogwarts: I'm the only cultivator here!

"A thief broke in? That can't be right. Our family has a good relationship with the villagers. They would definitely stop us if they saw it. Could it be that you didn't close the door when you came out?"

"Impossible, I remember clearly that I closed the door when I came out."

"Could it be your parents? I remember they seem to have a key to our house."

"possible."

"Why don't you go back and buy two pounds of meat? If our parents really come, we can't let them eat our leftovers from last night, can we?"

"Okay, you go back first, I'll go back to town and buy two pounds of meat." As he spoke, Ye's father braced himself with one foot, and with a sudden jerk of his hands gripping the handlebars of the bicycle, he turned the bicycle around and rode back. Ye's mother walked into the house with a curious look on her face, and then she saw a head sticking out from around the corner.

(￣▽￣)~*

"Mom, you're back. Did you miss your dear son?"

Ye Ma: (￣ー￣)

Ye's mother turned her head: "Honey! No need to buy anything! It's not our parents who's here, it's Xiao Ye who's back!"

Ye's father, who had already turned around and ridden some distance away, stopped his bicycle upon hearing Ye's mother's voice. He turned around and shouted, "What? You mean it's not our parents who came, but Xiao Ye? Okay, there's still quite a lot of leftover food from yesterday. Let him eat more, and he should be able to finish it tonight."

Ye Feng: (╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻

"Are Uncle and Aunt back?" Just then, a small figure ran out from behind Ye Feng in a flustered manner.

Ye's mother: (? ? ?)

"Honey! You need to buy enough meat to cook at least four dishes tonight. If you can't find it at the market, you have to borrow some from someone!"

Hearing Ye's mother's words about the huge change in her behavior, Ye's father was also very curious. Moreover, he was not far from the door, so he did not turn back directly but continued to ride towards the door. When he returned to the door and saw Zhang Qiu behind Ye Feng, he was instantly startled.

"Our pigs...could they already be starting to root for cabbages?"

"Hello, uncles and aunts, my name is Zhang Qiu."

"Zhang Qiu?"

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Ye's mother's mind, and she exclaimed in surprise, "You're Zhang Qiu? I never expected it! I never expected that the girl who was so dark and thin when she was in school could give birth to such a beautiful daughter."

Zhang Qiu: ...

It's kind of exciting that she's talking badly about my mom right in front of me, since this 'mom' in other people's eyes is someone she's never really known.

At Mrs. Ye's exclamation, Mr. Ye also came to his senses. He nodded very seriously and said, "Don't worry, wife, I'll go buy the groceries right away." Before he finished speaking, Mr. Ye had already turned the bicycle around, but just as he turned the bicycle around, he suddenly thought of something.

"Oh, right, son, the old hen in the coop hasn't laid eggs for several days. Kill it and prepare it for you. Don't forget the passion fruit extract; the soup made from the old hen just doesn't taste right without it."

Ye Feng: The case is solved. He is definitely the biological son, because only the biological son would receive this treatment. As for Zhang Qiu, the uneasy Zhang Qiu has already been pulled to sit on the sofa in the living room by Ye's mother. After seeing Ye Feng still standing there dumbfounded, she immediately turned her head and glared at him.

"What are you all standing there for? Can't you see Zhang Qiu's hands are empty? Hurry up and pour her a drink!"

Ye Feng: ┐(￣ヘ￣)┌

"I'm just destined to be a workaholic, let's get to work." With a slight sigh, Ye Feng went to pour Zhang Qiu a drink. Looking at Ye Feng's helpless expression, Zhang Qiu felt a little more relaxed, perhaps because she had experienced this scene before.

Chapter 61 Back to School

Zhang Qiu's arrival made Ye Feng's house even more lively. At the strong request of Ye Feng's parents, Zhang Qiu stayed at Ye Feng's house for more than half a month. During this half month, she successfully "stole" all of Ye Feng's affection, including that of the villagers.

Of course, Ye Feng and Zhang Qiu both knew very well that the reason she was so favored was entirely because of Ye Feng. In the past two weeks, Zhang Qiu finally understood why Ye Feng was so 'favored' in the village and why his magical talent was so high.

During these two weeks, Ye Feng's daily routine was basically the same: after getting up in the morning, he would start cultivating, have breakfast, then take a 'stroll', and finally go home to tinker with his various things.

Of course, Ye Feng did not cultivate magic, but something else that was very similar to the immortal techniques in Chinese legends, because she had personally witnessed Ye Feng exhaling a sword-shaped white mist during his morning practice.

Even though Zhang Qiu didn't live in China all the time, he couldn't resist the temptation of such a thing. Ye Feng also saw the longing and curiosity in Zhang Qiu's eyes, so he first tried to teach Zhang Qiu the most basic Qi-inducing technique that he had obtained from the system.

Although this technique is just the most basic and simple cultivation method, it's basically like a modern cell phone, which anyone can buy. But it has one advantage: because its level is so low and basic, if you want to switch to another technique after practicing it for a while, it can seamlessly connect to your current one.

Unfortunately, perhaps the meridians and other structures of the people in this world are not well-suited to the cultivation system. Although Zhang Qiu could sense the hidden energy within her body, no matter how hard she tried, that energy refused to follow the guidance of the Qi Induction Technique.

You should know that the Qi Induction Technique is the most basic cultivation method. Now that even this most basic and non-exclusive technique cannot be cultivated, other techniques are even less likely to be effective.

However, Ye Feng wasn't too surprised, because he had once asked his parents to try cultivating, but after all his attempts to dissuade them, he was almost beaten up by his parents as if they were crazy after only two days, because his parents didn't feel any so-called qi at all.

"It seems you're not suited for cultivating immortality."

Hearing Ye Feng's words, a deep sense of disappointment flashed in Zhang Qiu's eyes, because her 'brother' was very likely already an immortal, and although she was also a wizard, the difference between a wizard and an immortal was beyond quantification. The fact that he could maintain his youth alone was enough to fascinate Zhang Qiu.

"Don't be discouraged. Although you are not suitable for cultivating immortality, there are extraordinary powers in this world. I have figured out a set of spiritual guidance methods. Practicing this guidance method can continuously enhance your spiritual power. More importantly, it can continuously promote the evolution of your magic. It can also be considered a kind of 'cultivation'."

Zhang Qiu wasn't stupid, otherwise she wouldn't have become a top student in Ravenclaw. So Ye Feng only spent half a day getting her to the basics. However, to Ye Feng's surprise, after getting to the basics, Zhang Qiu's magical power increased significantly, and she was no less powerful than an adult wizard.

After Ye Feng taught Zhang Qiu, the little girl followed him around all day, even when he went for a "stroll".

Actually, calling it a stroll isn't quite accurate, because he was actually wandering around the village to check on the health of the elderly, whether their chickens, ducks, cats, and dogs were sick, and whether they needed his help.

Of course, this wasn't free of charge. After all, some things are useless if you just learn them and remember them; you have to experiment with them yourself. And the livestock and poultry of the whole village were his best practice subjects.

That's why, whenever someone in the village has a problem, as long as he's still home, they'll ask him to go and check on things.

Ye Feng returned this time for two reasons: to see his parents and to collect some medicinal herbs that he had asked the villagers to help him grow, as well as to order a batch of alchemy furnaces.

He used to worry that taking out too much money rashly would make his parents anxious and cause them unnecessary trouble, so he rarely used magical means to make money. But now it's different. After all, he is a junior wizard with a legal identity in the magical world, so it is perfectly understandable that he has a little money.

So, when Ye Feng reluctantly took Zhang Qiu, who had just returned from her grandmother's house, and prepared to embark on their journey back to Hogwarts, his spatial ring was filled with all sorts of alchemy furnaces, enough to fill a three-story villa of a hundred square meters.

"Awoo~ (That dog is finally leaving... (つД｀)???, it wasn't easy!)"

"Waaah~ (Yeah, I've survived another brush with death)"

"Waaaaah~ (Oh, poor Fang, she couldn't hold on in the end.)"

"Huh? (Xiao Fang?) Waaaaah~ (She's alright. I saw her in Lingtou Village yesterday, and she had a dog with her...)"

Suddenly, the two dogs fell silent. After looking at each other, they hugged each other and burst into tears.

"We're both just dogs in the same boat, why don't we just make do and live together? After all, we dogs don't have to work or earn money to build houses..."

The village became unusually lively because of Ye Feng's departure, especially the cats and dogs that he had caused so much trouble. It was as if it were New Year's Day. There was even a pair of cats and dogs that would fight to the death whenever they met, but they were so happy that they hugged each other.

Ye Feng left, just as he had returned—his return was grand and spectacular, and so was his departure.

Of course, Ye Feng didn't just wander around aimlessly during this holiday; he also made quite a few gains.

First of all, he has successfully developed his previous idea of ​​the Manipulation Technique. The most powerful aspect of this Manipulation Technique is that it is not a spell but magic, which means that Cho Chang and Harry can also learn it.

In addition, he has already completed the Transfiguration mission previously issued by the system.

After spending the entire holiday having 'friendly exchanges' with the cats and dogs in the village, Ye Feng has thoroughly mastered the art of shapeshifting. Now he can transform into any cat or dog in the village without any flaws.

It's unclear whether it's because his divine sense is too powerful, but even when he transforms into a cat or dog, his consciousness remains completely unaffected. Moreover, he can freely control his transformed body, meaning that after transforming, he can act just like the animals in cartoons without any issues.

The moment Ye Feng completed the mission, he received a rather astonishing reward. It was precisely because this reward was so amazing that Ye Feng still had no clue how to cultivate it. The system's reward to him was the 108 Transformations of Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends, which meant that he had already collected the 72nd and 36th Transformations.

The only pity is that the system only gave him the cultivation method but didn't teach him how to practice it, so he still has to figure it out on his own, just like the rewards he received before.

Two days later, at Platform 9¾, Ye Feng's eyes lit up when he saw the girl who had come in with Ron and his family. She was even more exquisite and lovely than in the movie.

Don't get me wrong, he wasn't interested in Ron's sister, Ginny. After all, Cho Chang is much prettier than she is in the movie. The reason he was eyeing Ginny was because he had discovered the 'final exam questions' for this semester.

"Hehehe, another wild Voldemort has arrived. This time I definitely can't let him get away so easily. I need to study him carefully."

Chapter 62 Flying Broomstick Competition Prologue

Just as a disciple of a certain antagonist caused havoc in Heaven during his graduation exam, the final exams for each school year in the Harry Potter world are very similar, except that instead of causing havoc in Heaven, they are Voldemort.

Unfortunately, Ye Feng intercepted both of Harry and Ron's final exams last school year, which prevented them from completing their exams. This time, Ye Feng felt he should give them a chance, so he walked up to Ron's family and... Harry with shining eyes.

"Good morning, Mrs. Weasley and Miss Ginny."

"Oh, and Harry too."

The Weasley brothers: "And us?" ×3

"Oh, and the three of you too."

The Weasley brothers: ...

"Hello." While Ye Feng and the Weasleys were greeting Harry, Cho Chang also came over to say hello.

Upon seeing Cho Chang, the Weasleys, including Harry, were visibly flustered. Cho Chang had spent most of the summer at Ye Feng's house and was not only well cared for and "fed" by Ye's parents, but she had also consumed a lot of pills that Ye Feng had tested and confirmed were beneficial to her health. As a result, she not only had a rosy complexion but also exceptionally fair and delicate skin, making her look exceptionally bright and beautiful even without makeup.

Perhaps noticing Harry and the others' awkwardness, after they introduced themselves to each other, Cho Chang smiled and said, "You two chat, I'll be going now."

It took several seconds after Zhang Qiu left for the group to come to their senses. Ron, one of the group, exclaimed as soon as he came to his senses, "Is that Zhang Qiu? He seems like a completely different person." As he spoke, Ron glanced at Ye Feng, his eyes revealing no attempt to hide his inquiry.

Aside from Harry and Ginny, almost everyone understood Ron's meaning instantly, and their gazes toward Ye Feng became somewhat mischievous.

Ye Feng rolled his eyes and said, "What are you thinking? The reason Zhang Qiu has changed so much is mainly because I taught him 'cultivation'."

"Cultivating immortality? What's that? Is it a kind of magic?"

"No, it's a kind of mysterious Eastern power, which is very complicated to explain."

Upon hearing this, Ron and the others immediately assumed it was Ye Feng's excuse. Ye Feng could tell from their expressions that they didn't believe him. This made Ye Feng sigh, realizing that no one believed him even though he was telling the truth. However, Zhang Qiu's 'attention' was also related to her not yet knowing how to restrain her mental power.

Zhang Qiu is so remarkable mainly because she practiced the modified mental guidance method by Ye Feng, which caused her mental power to surge dramatically in a short period of time. This surge in mental power, in turn, led to a significant increase in her magical power. As a result, she was unable to properly control and restrain these two powers, which is why this situation occurred.

However, this situation will not last long. Given Zhang Qiu's talent, he will recover in about a week. As for Ye Feng, he has already reached the point of returning to simplicity and completely internalizing his immortal power and divine sense.

...

Ye Feng and the others didn't chat much because Ginny was a freshman this semester, and the train was about to leave, so they had to go inside to find seats. Therefore, after chatting for a few minutes, the Weasley twins were in a hurry to leave. However, just as they were pushing their trolley and were about to rush to the entrance of Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, they suddenly remembered something and slammed on the brakes.

"That was close! I almost forgot this entrance was enchanted. I almost crashed into it like last year." As he spoke, George carefully pushed the cart into the entrance, and Fred behind him breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing the two of them, the Weasleys exchanged a glance and a look of relief appeared on their faces.

"Our child is finally starting to understand things..." Of course, this was just what they thought and didn't say it aloud, otherwise Ye Feng next to them would definitely have rolled his eyes.

Getting these two notorious troublemakers at Hogwarts to behave themselves is no less difficult than getting Voldemort to give up his invasion of Hogwarts. Of course, Ye Feng instinctively overlooked the fact that he alone had done more outrageous things than the Weasley twins combined.

"Let's go too, let's find Ginny a better spot." Seeing the twins go inside, Mrs. Weasley nodded to Ye Feng and walked forward with her things. From this, it can be seen that Ginny's status in their family is still very high, after all, Ron didn't have this kind of treatment back then.

Ye Feng remembered clearly that when they brought Ron to school, they didn't even help Ron find a seat or get his luggage. Mrs. Weasley, who was with Ginny, didn't even go onto the platform.

Seeing that Ginny and the others had already gone in, Ye Feng, who had put all his luggage in his spatial ring like Zhang Qiu, turned around to enter the platform. But just as he was about to turn around, he sensed something, raised his eyebrows slightly, and subtly stepped back a little to make way for Ron and Harry to go first.

Although they didn't know why Ye Feng had taken a step to the side, time was indeed running out, and they could easily talk on the train if they wanted to, so they didn't think much of it and pushed the cart forward, and then…

"Bang!"

The sound of the metal cart hitting the wall rang out, but because of the magic circle Ye Feng had set up earlier, although they walked very fast, they did not run, so the impact was not very strong. However, the sudden bump from the cart into their stomachs still made them curl up like boiled shrimp.
